do you think she is telling the truth about her feelings?
because the last time she spoke her existence she was told to be smaller; act smaller.
she was told to cross her legs at a young age.
she was told to be polite.
she was also told not to take shit from anyone.
do you see how confused her peers may have been?
the nicest girl on the block could turn into the meanest.
when she stood up for herself, she never felt guilty in doing so.
when she stood up for others, she never cared about the reactions other people gave her.
she knew when something was right and when someone was wrong.
she knew she could stand up and say something; that's who she became.
some forgot about her kindness because it seemed she was only correcting the ignorant.
her heart is gold.
her mind is pure.
her energy can create mountains; she understands she is apart of mother nature.
when they told her to be something she wasn't, she showed them who she was.
it never shocked anyone that she could not live like the rest of them.
the rest of them were just living in a lie.
